Hi, this is my first time ever posting on a forum like this, but I need some confirmation. I just downloaded this game and I am playing with Ed's story and I got to the part just after you fight the sewer monster and find the 1st save medal that isn't automatically in your inventory and 2 parts struck me as odd.

1st, after finding the man with his arm torn off in the block house, I used the radio to call my partner. The conversation seemed fine until the end. It sounded like it skipped something, even though I tested it again without touching anything, hands off the keyboard completely. It sounded like Ed said "Lead me to the mansion. No! No no no. Over." The part between the mansion statement and the nos sounded like there was a skip.

The 2nd thing was when I fought the sewer monster. At first I tried to run but as I reached the exit, the monster jumped on me and Ed just warped to the middle of the room. Does this happen for anyone else? I don't need help beating the monster, I already know what to do and when he attacks me normally the animation when he drags me under and Ed rises up out of the water plays with no problem. It is only when I try to leave during the fight that the odd warping effect happens. Since this is so early on in the game and the whole process from start to the sewer fight takes like five minutes, could anyone who knows their copy is going off without a hitch test it and see if this stuff is supposed to happen? Thanks.

Never had the issue with the sewer monster fight, but I did have that radio bug in that scene where a piece of dialog seems to be missing happen all the time when I get to that scene.

I guess it is normal then and just crappy acting.
You did get the fact that I mention the sewer bug only happens when I try to leave before the fight is over, right? When it just attacks me normally, he gets drug under and rises back up as expected.
Nevermind folks.
I looked around in the dialog sounds in the games folder and it turns out that the game is in fact skipping some lines by itself. I'm re-installing to see if that fixes the problem.
And... no it doesn't.
Looks like I just gonna hafta find the ps1 version on Amazon or Ebay...

I bought Alone in the Dark - New Nightmare during this weekends promo. I also was warping in the middle of the room when I tried to leave during the sewer fight. I guess the bug was never fixed.

If you won't kill the sewer monster and try to leave the area the monster gets you and you are flushed somewhere in the middle of the room. This can go on until you are dead.
You have to kill the monster in order to leave this room. That's no bug.

I knew that. The animation the happens when you try to leave was bugged, though.
